Bath Re-enamelling for Plaw Field homes
Damaged bath in Plaw Field? We repair it in place, mix the colour on the day and back it with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Have chips seen to early
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
About our bath re-enamelling in Plaw Field
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Typical jobs include a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and chips and rust in more than one place, on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Common problems we fix in Plaw Field
Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, generally first under the taps and around the waste.
Most people contact us when they notice something like this:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- Thin, worn enamel in places
Questions to ask before booking
- Who turns up on the day
- Aftercare advice
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether the colour is mixed to match

A replacement often means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and generally a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good.
